| Abstract | Eight undergraduates performed a 2-choice speeded classification task that required selective attention to either the consonant or the vowel in synthetic consonant-vowel (CV) syllables. Results show that when required to attend selectively to the consonant, Subjects did not ignore irrelevant variation in the vowel. Similarly, when required to attend selectively to the vowel, they did not ignore irrelevant variation in the consonant. Results suggest that information about an initial stop consonant and the following vowel is processed as an integral unit. |
